The supermarket. @crypuppy.bsky.social's beautiful comic explores how we continue living in the face of problems

I already disliked lofi music for other reasons but one reason is how much art is stolen for them, I am now a member of the club too. It is funny to be reminded how much my style has changed but fuck youuuu Getting stuff on youtube knocked down is new to me, any tips?

Pitching a (free) service where I watch hours of art documentaries on your youtube algorithm until it’s perfect

My favorite neighborhood bakery is back from vacation today 💕 I tried not to dream of their focaccia too much while they were away, lest my yearning disturb their respite.

I'm so tired of the people who create the things I love having to live in abject poverty

I'm really grateful that the campaign will hit its goal soon. This past week has been unexpectedly super hectic since we're housing and supporting friends whose condo was affected by a fire. Thanks for backing these beautiful books!

There's a few weeks left to submit your Ignatz ballot! Voting is open to everyone (all you have to do is request it) until August 12th, so don't forget to vote! 🗳️ Here's some BTS for our OUTSTANDING ONLINE COMIC nominee, KISS THE COOK by @rhinosnax.bsky.social and myself!🍞

Sketchie 🔪✨

I thrifted this retired American Girl Doll and I’m really happy about it. She’s a little haunted but we’re working through it.

We are so so so excited to publish these titles by one of the top mech designers of all time! if you are already a fan, we really would want people to spread the word about Kow Yokoyama and his works!!

Just a periodic reminder that it's a good idea to bookmark your favorite artists' sites, sign up for their newsletters, and follow them everywhere you can. (My links are in my profile & pinned post!). Because of the current climate of censorship you never know where we'll get kicked off of next.

This was SUCH a fun conversation. I used to conduct interviews for the Beat nearly a decade ago and it was really nice to dive into that again. Thanks to emuh at @glacierbaybooks.com for being game!

Kickstarter! Be better! I’ve stuck with Kickstarter through a lot of shit because the fine folks at Kickstarter United had my back - now we all have to have theirs. Sign this petition for a minimum livable wage and a codified 4 day work week for our colleagues at Kickstarter United.

Taking my weird carnival comic to the weird carnival it’s based on so it feels at home 🐸🐰💫
